Abstract

The invention relates to a face and mouth muscle stimulator formed by an approximately oblong, oval body (1) to be placed in the mouth, having an open central part and side ends (2) that are wider than the upper and lower mid-zones (3) which are provided with V-shaped recesses (4) at the position of the frenulum. Optionally, the invention can include fixed or removable projections (5) positioned on the stimulator or on attachments (8). The invention can also include a sheet (6) provided with holes (7) for the connection of elements such as bottles or pacifiers or provided with a horizontal groove (11) for the incorporation of a bite splint (12) coupled at the front (2b) thereof using T-shaped flanges (13). Alternatively, the body (1′) can have a V-shaped configuration formed by vertical walls (20 and 30) in order to be positioned in the inner space of the lower jaw, including perpendicular projections (40 and 50) by way of horizontal bite planes.

Description

PURPOSE OF THE INVENTION

[0001] As expressed in the title of this design brief, the invention refers to a face and mouth muscle stimulator.

[0002] More specifically, the object of the invention consists in a prefabricated physical element made of biocompatible and elastic materials and used inside the mouth, which is especially developed and designed to apply stimulation to the face muscles, offering medium or long-term effects that modify muscle tone, muscle functions and / or the expression of the user's face.

[0003] The stimulator has been designed for use inside the mouth, between the teeth and the lips or the cheeks, and it will be principally used at night, although it can also be used during the day.

[0004] As is well known, the application of direct stimulation to certain muscles or muscle groups stimulates them and inhibits the activity of the antagonist muscles.

[0005] This stimulator bases its action on the aforementioned physiological principle. In order to do this, stimulant elemen...
